Meh. My Burb get lots of compliments. Stock, 255/85's.

Yeah that makes sense. I have noticed w/ mine that at higher pressures the tires kind of "lock" themselves together. Probably what they were designed for in the first place...

Do you notice much sidewall "sway" on a heavy vehicle like that? While towing? I notice some on my Burb when the pressures are too low, on the street. 85 series is a tall sidewall.

Well, ashooter gave a pretty good review starting on pg 6, with several updates along the way. I posted another on pg. 10, again w/ a few updates over a year or 2. As the tire has remained the same, what would change about the reviews?

How do I know you haven't read this thread?......

Trailer? Here is one I use for beach fishing. Mostly it holds fishing gear and coolers.

Maybe they could be made better by routing the washer fluid up the wiper arms and into the blade? My older Burb has the squirters on the arms, works pretty well.

I use the green-colored Rain-X washer fluid, works pretty well. $3/gal at walmart.

^^ Nice

Crappy pic. Too busy fishing...

Get a Suburban and sleep in back.

Trust me, once you try out a tentcot you will never go back. IMO, it is truly the best solution for someone traveling in a vehicle. I have spent at least 200 nights in mine (I own 3, each one stays loaded in one of my cars or trucks). They literally set up in less than 3 minutes. There is no...

Answer: Tentcot. Best $200 you will ever spend.

The square-body 4x4 Burb's don't really have that high of a towing rating... around 5500# IIRC. They only came w/ 350's and didn't get the oversize brakes. The 2WD versions were the towmasters of the group, w/ a 454 and heavier springs they could haul around 10K I think. I have towed 5500#...

Build a folding shark rack for the roof! Where is SA are you? I'm near Randolph AFB.

To the OP- the trips and experiences will last a lifetime of memories. The vehicle, not so much. It will eventually be sold or scrapped. Best vehicle I ever owned was a backpack. Lasted me a year thru Central America. Only paid for gas when hitching a ride. Benefit is portability. Just...

Not sure if I posted these before. The river shot was before the new rear leaf springs, you can see her sagging a bit.

I like those storage areas in thew doors. Could you post a close up? Mine doesn't have those.

Bump. Brian, just sent you a text. I should be out there in the end of August, or maybe the 1st week of Oct. Erik 415-279-5116
